The Hyundai Elantra has been sold in the U.S. market for more than 20 years; yet it probably didn't make it onto most American compact sedan shoppers' lists until the past five years or so. If you're cash-strapped and looking for an older, more affordable vehicle (even than the 2007-2010 versions), we found the Elantra GT hatchbacks from the previous third generation (from 2002-2006) to be quite charming and often-overlooked in their time.
